Connecting AC Wiring to the Optional Control
The control is wired to a 115-230 Vac @ 30 VA power source. In bringing AC wiring to the
control, follow these guidelines:
•
All wires can be run through flexible liquid-tight conduit as long as all circuits are the same
voltage. If your emergency stop circuits are low voltage circuits (such as 24 Vdc), run two
conduits–for instance, one for 115 Vac wires and one for 24 Vdc wires.
•
Bring the wiring connections for AC power to a convenient point so that you can tie them
to the appropriate connector. No. 16 wire is recommended for these circuits; use No. 14 if
local codes require it.
Perform the following steps to connect AC wiring to the Shadow 8 control:
1.
Open the door of the control and locate terminal block TB1 on the Shadow 8 Main board
in the lower left corner of the enclosure (see Figure 2-22, page 2-38). This is the
connector for AC power.
Make sure to install end caps on the connectors of the last Extension Receiver and
Transmitter in your light curtain setup to protect them from oil and other contaminants.
GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
• Ensure that the power source is off before you make any wiring connections.
• Turn off and disconnect power from the Shadow 8 safety light curtain and from the machinery it
is connected to, including the machine control and motor, before making any wiring
connections.
• Ensure that all procedures are performed by qualified personnel.
• Complete all installation procedures before connecting wires to the AC power source.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury.
